   I read _The Witling_ and _Grimm’s World_ years ago, though I   
   remember very little of either, and I’ve browsed in   
   _Rainbows End_.  I’m pretty sure that I’ve at least browsed   
   in both _Fire_ and _Deepness_, and I may even have read at   
   least a good chunk of one of them.  I can read him, but I no   
   longer bother: I’m a character-centred reader, and he offers   
   too little in the way of characters that appeal to me.
